Mida is a dream therapist who sits on a wheelchair in the real life. However, she has the ability to access people’s dreams and solve their psychological problems. In addition, Mida is capable of changing and linking dreams by her singing in dreams. Mida encounters a high school girl, Sue who has been bothered by her predictable dreams.
